Abstract (en)

[origin: US6462268B1] A cable includes a pre-selected number of binder units. Each binder unit includes an even number of paired couples of conductors, evenly divided into quads, and an additional twisted pair of conductors, coupled with and encircled around a length of a filler material, extended in parallel so the quads of conductor pairs surround the additional pair of conductors and the filler material. A binder unit wrap encloses each binder unit and a foil free edge tape is applied with the foil facing inwardly and a drain wire pulled between the foil and the unit wrap. An overall core wrap encloses each binder unit, and a shield is applied over the top of the overall core wrap such that the shield surface faces inwardly for improved termination methods. An overall drain wire is placed between the overall core wrap and overall shield. The entire cable may be enclosed by a jacket or sheath. A method for forming the cable is also disclosed.
